It occurred around 252 million years ago and is also referred to as the Permian extinction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18.5px; text-align: justify;\">It was caused by&nbsp;<strong>global warming that left ocean animals unable to breathe<\/strong>. Roughly&nbsp;<strong>96 percent of marine species<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>70 percent of land species<\/strong>&nbsp;went extinct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:18px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What led to extinction?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:18px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18.5px; text-align: justify;\">A series of volcanic eruptions in central Siberia near the end of the era released massive amounts of greenhouse gases (GHG) into the atmosphere. The uncontrolled GHG emissions triggered climatic changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18.5px; text-align: justify;\"><strong>Earth is going through a similar phase of warming.&nbsp;<\/strong>Today, scientists from Stanford University warn of the imminent&nbsp;<strong>mass extinction of marine species<\/strong>&nbsp;similar to the Permian extinction that wiped out most lives in oceans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18.5px; text-align: justify;\">The deep oceans are warming. The energy accumulated by the ocean is referred to as its heat content. In comparison to ocean water, which can hold 1000 times more heat, the atmosphere has a low heat capacity. As a result, the majority of the heat emitted by GHGs is absorbed by the ocean. In 2021, the heat content of the ocean reached a new high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18.5px; text-align: justify;\">Recently, the&nbsp;<strong>UN (United Nations) Ocean Conference 2022<\/strong>&nbsp;was held to ensure global cooperation toward protecting and sustaining the&nbsp;<strong>Ocean ecosystem<\/strong>&nbsp;in the world.
